Washington Special: Lieut.. Gov. Rico
OF Minnesota has written u letter to Seore-
tary Lamar informing him that the land
officers at Benson are allowing ignorant
persons, mostly foreigners, to file and To-
cate upon certain lands within the grant
OF the Manitoba railroad which already
have been certified to the state and by the
state to the road. These lands are what
are known as place lands" that is, OF
the grant aud not indemnity lands
and why the local lapd officers should al
low settlers to file on them. knowing them
to DO withdrawn from settlement, rather
mystified the secretary. He addressed
q note to Commissioner Sparks instruoting
him to inquire Of the officers by telegraph
their reasons for allowing these settlements
md to withdraw all such filings at once.
There are now before the department over
1000 applications from settlers to
file on granted and indemnity
lands OF railroads within the Benson and
Worthington land district, most OF which
have been rejected by the local officers and
appealed to the commissioner. Under the
proposed plan OF rectangular adjustment
OF grants which the commissioner adopted
year or more ago, few entries were
allowed, but as the secretary oversuled
this plan some months ago these entries
will have to be relinquished.

He Drew a Gun.

Complaint was filed yesterday eve
ming against Sam Stanton, who had
aboard too much Christmas juice, fol-
cursing and swearing. There being
no outside deputies around, deputy
Coo. whose work is confined princi-
pally to the inside, went to make the
arrest. When near Mr.. Stanton Mr..
Coe called out: 81 would like to see
YOU. Mr.. Stanton" This friendly
salutaiion was met with an ugly Win
chester rifle leveled full in the depu-
tvs face. For moment or so he par
leyed with the determined looking
Stanton and finally succeeded in
throwing the latter of his guard,
which was no sooner accomplished
than Mr.. Coe covered him with an
ivory handled "pcrsuader" and or
dered him TO throw up his hands
which summons was quickly obeyed
and the obdurate prisoner marched oil
TO Jail where he was quietly resting
this morning. Stanton is said to be a
good citizen when sober, but he is
evidently reckless with fire arms when
drinking.

a Special Session Probable

WASHINGTON, February 26.-Despite
the wish of the President and members
in both houses of Congress to avoid the
necessity for calling a session of the
two houses for special business of the
Senate, the opinion is entertained to-
day that matters in respect to the ap-
bills are rapidly drifting
into a position. if indeed they have not
already reached it, which makes a
called session inevitable.
Allison says in all his service in both
houses he has never known such a
state of backwaTdness in regard to ap-
bills. For this condition OF
things he declares that neither
the Senate nor its . committees
on appropriations are in any way re-
sponsible. A member of the Senate
appropriation committee declared his
belief that it will be impossible during
the remaining days of the. session to
finish the appropriation bills.
The matter of appointments ard con-
contributes to the influence
which may produce called session.
